Hello,
I am looking for a reasonably priced battery backup option for the reef that I am setting up. I want the backup to run my wavemaker and return pump for at least 8 hours so I don't have to worry about things happening when I'm not home. The wavemaker is a CurrentUSA controllable 24vdc (I will probably have 2) and I plan on using a Sicce Syncra Pro for the return pump (which is AC).
I have read that you don't need to backup your return pump, and that the wavepumps are all that you need. Is this true?
Are their any battery backups that would run both of these pumps? I basically have no knowledge on this, and would appreciate any advice or articles you think would help.
If I don't have to worry about backing up my return pump, which backup has the most bang for its buck?
Thank you for reading through this,
